I'll change the title of this request to deal with the navigational item
as all other items have been reported separately: There should be an
easier way to find your way back to the group homepage. Currently, the
navigation doesn't allow you to go back easily unless you click the
author of the page / collection, but it may not be so obvious that you
are being taken back to the group homepage.

** Summary changed:

- Group Improvements
+ Improve navigation in the group when viewing page / collection

** Tags added: navigation usability

Title:
  Improve navigation in the group when viewing page / collection

Status in Mahara ePortfolio:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  I like the idea of Mahara groups, but I find them a bit clunky for a
  couple reasons:

  1. Lack of central navigation once in a collection or page. One must
  click back to the central groups page, and find the group again. I’d
  like to easily return directly to the group homepage from a group page
  or collection or from pages and collections submitted to the group.
  Perhaps a “Back to Group Home” button?

  2. Lack of organization for submissions: Wish there was some way of
  rearranging submissions and putting them into folders. I often get
  group administrators who come in with a huge list of submissions and
  are completely lost in the clutter. It would be nice if they could see
  which pages they have viewed already, and which need more time to
  review.  Maybe a way to make notes to themselves that would appear
  next to the submission on the administrator group home page.

  Lack of access to personal mahara files from the group files page. I’d
  like to easily transfer a file from my mahara files, rather than have
  to upload it again to the group.

  Lack of community: As an administrator, I’d like to be able to contact
  everyone in the group via email.
